CAsH-BOYs AND GIRLS.

The problem of how to sell goods Is
an important one to the average mer-
chant, but to the New York vender Of
goods the disposition of the proceeds OF
the sale is matter OF almost as great
moment. Ii costs n big store at least
$1,000 a wear and no end of anxiety to
hire cash boys. These youths command
in New York u salary of 81 10 8 a week,
and cash-girls, who are deemed more
steady and reliable by some merchants,
get the same salary. About five years
ago poor mechanic of the me
tropolis stepped into dry goods
store TO make some purchases for
his wife and was kept waiting II
long time by tardy cash-boy. He con-
ceiyed the idea of an automatic system
of cash delivery 10y balls rolling over
tracks of wires He worked out bis in
vention, which was first tried in Chicago
store. 1t proved successful, but money
was needed to develop 1t, and the me-
chanic had to enlist men of means, 10
whom he gave a two thirds interest in
the patent. They were shrewd business
men, however, and refused to sell the
patent to any firm, but rented the right
at an average rate OF &1S wire peryear.
The scheme proved SO successful that
the inventor now receives al annual in
come of $500 His partners are a
syndicate of Boston capitalists.
A poor tioor-wRlker III a New York
store saw the workings of the cash-de-
livery system, and made up his mind
that he could improve upon IT to the ex-
tent of forwarding not only the cash but
the goods purchased by the customer to
central point in the store. tbs inyen-
ton consisted of basket in which was
placed the articles selected by the Gus
toner and purse containing the pur-
chase-money. The basket rushes along
over wires TO the cashiers desk, where
the goods are wrapped up, and after the
change has been put into the purse seat
back over the wires to the salesman
counter. This invention made fortune
for the man who devised IL, and one New
York firm reports that it saves them az
least 81, 90 year rs compared with
their outlay when they had to hire cash
boys.
Nevertheless, the cash-boy and the
cash. girl are still popular with several Of
the large metropolitan dry goods firms.

employ cash-boys, ore OF them having

No Chance for Yellow Fever Refugees
Getting Into Indian River.

Getting Into Indian River.
JACKSONVILLE, June 15.-Capt. r. p.
Paddison, commanding the steamer Rock
ledge, which runs on Indian river, arrived
in this city to-day, and in an interview with
your correspondent stated that the east
coast of Florida from Key West to Indian
River Inlet was effectually guarded.
"There are only three places that refugees
from Key West can enter in at, said the
Captain, land they are Lake Worth, Jupi-
ter Inlet and Indian River Inlet. These
three inlets are the only means of ingress
into the Indian river, and they are well
looked after.
st would simply be impossible under the
present circumstances for the refugees to
stop along the coast and endeavor to come
overland to the settlements, for a glance at
the map will show that the everglades
stretch almost along the entire coast up to
the mouth of the dndian river, and these
swanps are impossible. To give you an
idea how vigorously the quarantine is en-
forced, will give you case in point The
two Beard brothers, who live in that section,
and derive livelihood from selling fruits
from the West Indies, have Just returned
from the Bahamas, and, although well
known by everybody in that locality, are
quarantined for fifteen days at the Indian
river inlet, and nothing will induce the
citizens of that section TO permit the Beard
boys from leaving their schooner. Even
suppose the boys should slip through the
Indian river inlet, they could not reach any
point north without passing some of the
many villages which are built all along the
banks, and each of these settlements care
fully scrutinize every passing craft
again at Titusville there is a double
quarantine and anybody would have hard
time in running this blockade. AS for
myself have not the slightest apprehension
that yellow fever will be introduced into
tiaa State via the Indian river"

becoming the owner of the property. Mr.
Williams complained that in the settlement
Mr.. Dickinson had swindled him out Of a

to speak of Mr. Dickinson very unkindly,
and wishing that the gin would be burned,
as the evidence disclosed On the night of
Dec. 10 last the gin was destroyed by fire,
and a few days thereafter a negro, Prior
Wheeler, who was in the employ of Mr..
Dickinson at the gin, confessed to firing the
same stating that he was induced to do so
by d. w. Williams, W. L. Garrett, and a
negro, Tom Smith, stating that Mr.. Will

OIL IN WILKES COUNTY.
Terrible Tragedy Near Atlanta-Lieut.
RoSSignol Resigns

HOSSlBnOl hSSISlS'
ATLANTA, GA, June 15.-News reached
here to-day of horrible suicide at Sandy
Springs Camp Ground, eight miles from
this city. Yesterday, Jonathan Owens, a
farmer, aged II, tried to cut his throat with
a razor, which his wife took from him
before he could destroy himself and ran out
to tell the neighbors. While she was gone
Owens took off his shoes and socks and
taking down a double-barreled shot
gun, placed the muzzle in his
mouth and resting the butt on
the floor, pressed the trigger with his right
great toe, the contents of the gun passed
through his mouth and blew the back of his
head off, killing him instantly. He stated
To his wife before killing himself that he
was tired of life, and that God had been
too good to him in allowing him to live so
long He was in comfortable circum-
stances, and leaves wife and seven mar
ried children. There was no evidence going
to show insanity at the Coroner's inquest,
which was held to-day.
The discovery of oil is reported from
w likes county, nineteen miles above Wash
ington, ON the Broad river. A party of
Wilkes county gentlemen interested in its
discovery have been here for several days
consulting with experts. The specimens of
oil were examined here and thought to be of
the same character as found in the Penn
sylvania oil wells 1t appeared in a very
heavy deposit A sample was sent to
reliable chemist for analysis and
If he reports it satisfactory Col.
Baum, of artesian fame, will go to Wilkes
county with his machinery to bore for the
deposit The gentlemen concerned are san
guine and have taken options ON all the land
in the neighborhood.

signol Lieutenant Savannah Volunteer

COLUMBUS, GA, June 15.-Postmaster
William Watt has received notice of the
appointment of carriers for the free delivery
system, which goes into effect in this city
ON July l. They are as follows: First dis
trict, William S. Kennedy; Second district,
w. H. Johnston; Third district, Amos E.
Wilson (coloredl, and the Fourth
district, James d. Slade, who
will be superintendent of the delivery
service. Mr.. Kennedy said tonight that he
would not accept the appointment as he is
not willing to serve on the force with a
negro. There are others who cannot under
stand why negro who has been Republi-
can should have been appointed as sub car
rier. The postmaster will probably supply
the vacancy caused by the refusal of Mr..
Kennedy to accept the appointment.
Yesterday afternoon two small white boys,
about 10 years old, one Familiarity known as
